Meg Jay
Real confidence comes from mastery experiences, which are actual, lived moments of success, especially when things seem difficult. Whether we are talking about love or work, the confidence that overrides insecurity comes from experience. There is no other way.
Meg Jay, The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter—And How to Make the Most of Them Now

Anatole France
All changes, even the most longed for, must have their melancholy
Anatole France
